Ben's Pretzels opens this week at Meijer in Highland, IN

Had to share this yummy bit of info that I just received. Anyone out there love warm, doughy pretzels as much as I do? I'm not talking about those rubbery microwaved hot pretzels from the little league concession stand...I mean a freshly baked German-style version that is crusty on the outside and then steaming and soft on the inside that you can then dip in a spicy mustard for a tasty finish? Yeah, those kind!

Well, you don't have to head into the city to enjoy them at a dingy German pub. Ben's Soft Pretzels is a rapidly-growing company that now has more than 40 franchises, with several in Indiana and Illinois. There are also plans to expand further this year to have bakeries inside many Meijer and Wal-Mart stores.

On Thursday a location will open inside the Meijer location in Highland, Indiana. If you're in the area, stop by for a free pretzel between 11:30 and 5:30 p.m.
